　　The Importance of Being Participants in Life

　　Nowadays it is common to encounter a scene when people want to see things happen butcan't make things happen for various kinds of reasons. Sometimes, they just refuse to be thechange in the world.

　　As far as I am concerned, we should all have the notion of being the participant in our life. For instance, one can't have a healthy body by merely watching others take regular exercises. He must strengthen his body through his own efforts. Another case is that when peopleintend to acquire new skills, such as public speaking skill, they need to catch everyopportunity to speak in the public so that they can achieve success. Furthermore, there arechanges we want to see in the world, like protecting the environment effectively, and theonly way to make a difference is that each of us should be a contributing participant.

　　In conclusion, let's go out there to make things happen, just as the saying goes: "Be thechange you want to see in the world."
